Day 242: Riverwalk Landing Piers (Yorktown, VA) to Buzzards Point Marina (Reedville, VA) 6/29/22

We pulled away from Yorktown today. The current was calm. We untied from the cleats and the current gently pulled us away from the dock.  

The Chesapeake Bay was calm and easy. Jen set Wishes to autopilot and we cruised to Reedville, MD!  It is days like this that we love….its why we are doing the loop!

On the way, we passed a old lighthouse that was once for sale! It comes with .68 acres of shoreland for $250k. The interior pictures show that it needs a ton of work. It was great thinking about the possibility of living in a light house!  

We arrived at Buzzards Point Marina in Reedville safely. For the first time, the dockmaster was unavailable to catch a line. Kelly and Jen were able to toss lines over the tall pilings while Mike perfectly parallel parked us! ….guess we saved on the $10 tip to the dockhand.

The Marina location has no amenities anywhere. It is a place to sit and enjoy the view. The marina is tucked away in a cove with few houses around. When we arrived, we thought it would be the perfect place to paddle board until we turned the underwater lights on at night. We saw thousands of jellyfish!!  That quickly ended our hopes.

Harley made a friend at the marina. He is a 60lbs rescue puppy, such a sweet dog. Harley and Buzzard loved running around and chatting each other.

Because WIFI was unreliable, we decided to play Uno vs. watching a movie. Jen won! Then we went to bed early.
